Roll press design features

Fig. 6.10-23 a) Elevation of an early roll type briquetting press designed by Schuchtermann and Kremer [B.13b] and b) detail of the rollers of a relatively modern machine (about 1980, courtesy Koppern, Hattingen/ Ruhr, Germany), both featuring hollow roller cores... 

The difference in behavior between single- and multirow briquetting presses Above, the different behavior of wide roll compactors as compared to narrow rollers has been discussed. Roll-type briquetting presses feature even more pronounced differences if single-row designs are compared with multirow applications (i.e. two or more pockets across the face of rollers).
